Link Can Be Created In 3D Dot Game Heroes

Fan recreates 8-bit model using game's character creator.

3D Dot Game Heroes plays like a tribute to The Legend of Zelda, complete with extremely similar enemies and gameplay. It has its own unique hero and story though, which slightly detaches it from Nintendo's storied franchise. It doesn't have to be that way though.

As you can see in this video, it's possible to go into the character creator and make a hero of your own. As always seems to happens with games like these, this enterprising designer opted to create Link.

We've got some more videos up at GameVideos that show Link actually fighting, so head on over and check them out. No doubt we'll soon be seeing a huge range of classic characters being voxelized, from Mario to Master Chief.

No word on a North American release yet, but Sony has said that the localization is inevitable. In the meantime, you'll have plenty of time to plan the perfect recreation of your favorite character.

MasterChief = Classic Character?

Block You!

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!! 8 Bits have come back to the Playstation 3!!!!!!!!! Seriously, ever since I saw the opening for Activsion Anthology, I've wanted to play a 3D game that only uses blocky characters. It's so artistic!
